3 * The owner field of the rw_semaphore structure will be set to
4 * RWSEM_READ_OWNED when a reader grabs the lock. A writer will clear
5 * the owner field when it unlocks. A reader, on the other hand, will
6 * not touch the owner field when it unlocks.
8 * In essence, the owner field now has the following 3 states:
9 * 1) 0
10 * - lock is free or the owner hasn't set the field yet
11 * 2) RWSEM_READER_OWNED
12 * - lock is currently or previously owned by readers (lock is free
13 * or not set by owner yet)
14 * 3) Other non-zero value
15 * - a writer owns the lock

19 #ifdef CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER
21 * All writes to owner are protected by WRITE_ONCE() to make sure that
22 * store tearing can't happen as optimistic spinners may read and use
23 * the owner value concurrently without lock. Read from owner, however,
24 * may not need READ_ONCE() as long as the pointer value is only used
25 * for comparison and isn't being dereferenced.
